stamped concrete on Johnson Street east of Main Street starting the week of August
3rd. Construction barricades and barrels will begin being placed on
Sunday, August 2 at 8:00pm.

The project will
begin on Johnson Street from Marquette Street to National Avenue and is
scheduled to begin Monday, August 3rd. During this project, traffic
control will be set up to allow two-way traffic on Johnson Street.
